The death of the Master's third incarnation was acknowledged by Missy, herself a product of the Master's eighteenth death, on her Spacebook profile. (PROSE: Girl Power!)

Nature[[edit] | [edit source]]

By their nature as a Time Lord, the Master was born with an initial life cycle of 13 lives, which the Eighth Doctor knew had all been used by the time of the Old Master's trial on Skaro. (TV: Doctor Who) Missy acknowledged that she had first died thirteen times before before taking over "some bloke's body". (PROSE: Girl Power!) In fact, the Decayed Master, who claimed to be nearing the end of his "twelfth regeneration", had acquired "a new body" in the Trakenite Tremas. (TV: The Keeper of Traken) Surviving his execution on Skaro as a Deathworm Morphant, the Old Master took the body of Bruce, a human. (TV: Doctor Who)

The Bruce Master claimed to Chang Lee that the Doctor had taken most of his regenerations whilst the Doctor told Grace Holloway that the Master was both "on his last life" and had "[ran] out of all his lives". In their ensuing confrontation, the Master claimed that it was because of the Doctor that he had "wasted all [his] lives". The Doctor challenged this, reminding Lee that the Master claimed that he had stolen those lives when the reality was that the Master sought the Doctor's remaining lives after having "used all his lives", noting that the Master himself had just admitted to wasting "all of them". (TV: Doctor Who) In any case, the bodily theft was followed by the Master's fourteenth death. (PROSE: Girl Power!)

The Inventor[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Master who became "the Inventor" of Destination (AUDIO: The Destination Wars) was either the third or fourth incarnation by the reckoning of the Fourth Doctor. (AUDIO: Blood of the Time Lords)

The Fourth Doctor speculated that the Master, who made himself known as "the Inventor" on Destination, was in his second or third regeneration. (AUDIO: Blood of the Time Lords, AUDIO: The Destination Wars)

Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]

Fate[[edit] | [edit source]]

Ultimately, the Master's third incarnation died and naturally regenerated into his fourth incarnation. (PROSE: Girl Power!)

Post-mortem[[edit] | [edit source]]

When the "Tremas" Master was stripped of his Trakenite body by the Time Lords, and after his plot to steal the Fifth Doctor's regenerations failed, he found himself confronting mental projections of all his past incarnations, and was able to steal a bit of life energy from each of them, allowing him to regenerate back into his Trakenite body. (PROSE: The Velvet Dark)

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

Invalid sources[[edit] | [edit source]]

The first to fifth incarnations of the Master, (NOTVALID: The Doctor Who Role Playing Game) based on an image of Roger Delgado's Master from The Mind of Evil.

The Doctor Who Role Playing Game by FASA, which admits to taking liberties with the source material in its opening pages, gives a rundown of the Master's first thirteen incarnations in "The Master" supplement book, which was similar to (but not entirely consistent with) the in-universe biography given for the Master in FASA's own CIA File Extracts.

According to the book, the Master could control the form of his incarnations, and frequently used the same face. His first to fourth incarnations lived on Gallifrey, working as a scientist and temporal researcher which entailed a great deal of field work in which he encountered more than his fair share of accidents and dangers, forcing him into regeneration far more frequently than most Time Lords.

This constant form was described as a handsome, apparently middle-aged man distinguished by his tall and slim build with square-cut features, greying hair, piercing grey eyes, his aristocratic bearing and aloof manner. The Fifth Master kept the same face as his predecessors, but lasted over four-hundred-years due to his retirement, showing signs of age as the years went by. He eventually regenerated, aged over 700-years-old, when his rebellion on Gallifrey failed and forced him to become a renegade, with the War Chief among his followers. His next two incarnations appeared as a clean-shaven Monk, whilst the next six returned to a bearded appearance.
